Welcome to Neighbours Day Aotearoa! Morning Tea
Date: Saturday, 8th May
Time: 10am – 12noon
Venue: Hibiscus Coast Presbyterian Church, 107 Centreway Road, Orewa
We would like to warmly invite you to a neighbourly meet and greet morning tea & plant swop.
The kaupapa of Neighbours Day Aotearoa is to encourage people to get to know your neighbours better! It is as simple as that!
We would love to get to know our neighbours over a cuppa.
We hope to get to know more about you an as we contribute toward a culture of neighbourly celebration in the love of Christ.
Previous years have seen people joining Neighbours Day Aotearoa to hold plant swaps, BBQs, community movie nights, street parties, beach clean ups, and even small acts like sharing a cup of tea or running errands for our neighbours.
When we connect with our Neighbours good things happen! Here’s our top five benefits of connected neighbours:
1. WELLBEING : When our neighbourhoods are connected and spiritual, physical and emotional health are taken care of, we feel comfortable, happy and healthy.
2. CARING AND SAFETY : When we start from a place of neighbourly caring and generosity, feelings of trust, safety and belonging increase.
3. EMPOWERED : We feel confident to take action when we feel supported by strong social networks and relationships.
4. INCLUSION : We feel accepted in the community when we are allowed to be ourselves, can stretch outside of our comfort zones, and are included in other people’s worlds.
5. RESILIENCE : We can recover quickly from difficulties when we are prepared, we know our neighbours and can ask for and offer support.
If you would like, please bring a plant to swop – we already have a couple to start us off.
Please RSVP with Rev. Werner 021 956 581or simply arrive, we will be waiting.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
